Hello, it's Renato Corrales back with another blog. Today I will be talking about the selection process for the music for our movie. When it came to choosing the music, there were a few rules. Knowing the movie has to be a length of 1:55 max, we knew the song could not be long. Due to the song also not taking up the whole song, we need a short part of the song. This part would need to be a snippet that fits well with our movie's theme. Talking about the theme, we also wanted a song that was hype, something that a boxer would listen to. We searched for different songs and not to our surprise had lots of choices. There were choices like Kanye West's "Black Skinhead", Drake's "Back to Back", and Eminem's "Lose Yourself". At first, we were excited to see all the music options we had but we then recalled another rule there was to the music. The music for our movie could not be copyrighted, however, if wanting to still use it we would have t...
Hello, my name is Renato Corrales and I'm back with another blog. Today I'll be talking about our planning and finalization for setting up. When discussing our options of when the members can do our first meet-up, there were a few obstacles. First, we needed to find a time when we could all meet up to discuss it. Luckily, one of our classes landed together for all of us, allowing us to talk and arrange. During this class, we were able to see everyone's schedules. When looking at dates possible for us, we thought it would be best to look at our weekends for the first production. When it came to Conner, he was able to the weekend of 21 and 22, and the 28th. Finn could do the 29 and 28 and Isahiah was a maybe on the 21 and 22 but it was quite close and could not be weekdays for sure. I couldn't the 28 so we all had different days occupied. We all came to the realization that we could all do the following Tuesday and when rearranging, we all could do the Sunday 22nd. We dec...
Hello, it’s Renato Corrales, back with another blog. Today I'll be talking about the filming process of our music video. For our music video, we decided to film it at the Galleria Mall, CVS, and my neighborhood. Throughout our filming, we were able to get 5 scenes done. We first started at the Galleria Mall. Once we all had arrived, we decided to film a scene at the "jewelry store". Finn and his friend Sarah decided to be the scene. Me and Connor on the other hand filmed the scene while Isahiah coordinated how we wanted the scene to play out. We were able to get two scenes with Finn and Sarah. One used a tracking shot having Sarah tell Finn what she wants. Our other scene did a tilt from a zoom-in on the jewelry to Sarah and Finn. Once we had that scene done, we realized how good those two alone had already looked. We then proceeded to go to the top of the roof of the mall, just like how Drake is on the roof in his video. Once up there we decided to film our two scenes on...
